[TxMt] New user, feeling lost

[Ernest Obusek]

I can't find any docs that tell me know to do the cool stuff shown on  
the TextMate website.  Like I want to edit a block of text and make a  
change on the first line repeat in the following lines.  How do I do  
this?

How do I select text by column?

Why isn't this info easier to find?

Also, the app seems to be autosaving.  Is there a way to turn this  
off (I'm on a slow link).

Thanks,

Ernest
